It’s
winter round these parts and in my opinion there is no better time to rock a
bright lip - the punchier, the better! You can leave the rest of your face as
bare as you please, and if you’re sporting a duller than usual winter outfit it
is the perfect pick me up.

One
of the brightest and best formulas for bright, colourful lips I’ve come across
lately is Maybelline Color Sensational Vivids lipstick. I don’t know who is in charge at the global
beauty giant these days, but they’re coming out with collections that look and
feel fun and youthful, and the Vivids range is no exception. An eight-shade
collection of insanely bright lipsticks, they are created using special
patented pigments that help the colour stay true and sit on your lips for high
coverage as well. Unlike many lipsticks, they’re also not drying at all - which
is super-important when you’re wearing bright shades that accent any crack or
feather.

Aside from the
classic red (On Fire Red), I think the most wearable brights in the
range are the Shocking Coral (bright coral) and Vivid Rose (a
classic fuchsia). Pink Popis definitely for the
braver amongst us, but gorgeous nonetheless!
